Shana Halligan - Stand Proud lyrics

[Pre-Chorus] Don't speak nothing more to say No one listen anyway Is that how we are going to play All where we stand on Notice these messages especially No one was all we ever need Is that we were meant to be All where we stand on [Chorus] How can we fight for peace We are the enemies We've lost our dignity Stand up and stand proud We only know from greve Nobody wants to see We need to learn to say stand up And stand proud [Verse 1] Alright too much dutty politicians deh out a road Wah mama have to go work and leave her kids at home Several times a week she just a try to make ends meet Have to grind it out cause you know the pickney have to eat Father locked up so you know help is obsolete System set him up and now he is a product of the streets Brother tells his community that gets no help From those who claiming they help people in need News flash and nothing is different We have corporation making money over prisons I'll be dissing governments and it's only minimal Of all those money it's time to get rid of them Incorporation and it's all from the system They should know they should know now we mad at them How many more will they lock up the poor Or money for foreign investors to store No more [Pre-Chorus] Don't speak nothing more to say No one listen anyway Is that how we are going to play All where we stand on Notice these messages especially No one was all we ever need Is that we were meant to be All where we stand on [Chorus] How can we fight for peace We are the enemies We've lost our dignity Stand up and stand proud We only know from greve Nobody wants to see We need to learn to say stand up And stand proud Yea yea yea yea yow yow We nah go sit in quiet All you fi take a riot We just a blaze the fire red Revolution take me higher Oh yes this world is cold Or they don't see our soul The half has not been told Full time we take control Get up and stand up and Fight and fight And get up for your rights We standing up tall And divided we fall Time for we to unite We all need a semblance Whether we black or we white Get together organize It is time to centralize Oh don't tell me you trying To tell me what it is like Riots in the streets and The fires at night I see a reason to get up up and fight It's a f**ed up city in a f**ed up time We are in a system corrupted by greve Farms in the lands and they lead by leaves Big politicians and they speak on behalf of me And they claim that they come from the streets Don't speak nothing more to say No one listen anyway Is that how we are going to play All where we stand on Notice these messages especially No one was all we ever need Is that we were meant to be All where we stand on
